I am finally back here after two months of silence and I am so very happy to announce – our little adorable baby boy Matthew has arrived exactly 8 weeks ago!

He took his time coming to this world and made sure his mummy and daddy were truly desperate to finally meet him.

A healthy 4.3 kg at birth, he has already gained 2 kilos in the last 8 weeks. I have by now more or less figured out some sort of routine to help me get through the day and have even managed already to make some art, for some of which little Matthew has been the inspiration! I now have the cutest new muse in my own home, although I have to wait for the sleep time to really catch a moment and put my admiration down on paper.

Some of the first sketches of the sleepy angel below.

My new baby journal spread.

Soon to follow in the next post – my thoughts and notes on the first two months of parenting and some more art!
